At midnight, “in the roundel of cheerful elves, on Haslach Castle of the Welfs” seven of us and the marriage couple Luise and Oliver got together for a secret wedding-ceremony. In the atmospheric torch-light the two of them crossed through the legendary Barbarossa-Forest towards the spiritual marriage including handfasting. We were really delighted from having done a personal favour to you with this secret marriage service.

Pagan Wedding on 03 May 2014 in the Ostalb District
On a cold Saturday, Jana and Michael once again pledged loyalty towards each other in front of 80 guests and 30 of us. The two chose their fifth wedding anniversary for the renewal of their marriage vow.
Right next to Aalen, where once a Roman equestrian cohort performed their service, the fantasia village of Braighausen can be found. On a small lawn in the courtyard, we arranged the fairground for our first bridal couple of the year 2014. After a beautiful pagan ceremony with a resplendent bride, the celebration went on in the fabulous scenery of Braighausen.
Resolution of Ecclesiastical Marriage and De-Baptism on 02 May 2014 in NRW
In a short ceremony we abolished the churchly baptism and the catholic wedding of a couple. This happened on special demand of the bridal couple. The purpose of such an act is to deliberately seperate oneself from all bondings and belongings. Especially, if one no longer feels attracted towards a religion or a spouse.
A new Wedding Year begins
We await the new wedding year with great suspense and look forward to all the bridal couples and guests. This year we will start in Baden-Wuerttemberg and in Switzerland, will travel to France, Italy, Hamburg and to the Dutch border to perform pagan ceremonies and medieval marriages. Of course we will also be under way in Berlin and several other German cities, and feast and celebrate name consecrations, weddings and other occasions there together with you.
The whole year is entirely prearranged already; who wants to apply spontaneously is welcome to chance it anyway. For a small or secret ceremony there is always a little spot left. Apart from that, we have begun our planning for the year I2015 by now, the first requests reached us already. If you also want to perform a ceremony with us in I2015, it would be about time to contact us then – so that we can arrange an appointment.
We will, like always, report about the marriages in sound and vision on this webpage and look forward to the opinions and commentary of our bridal couples and their guests.
Medieval Marriage, Handfasting and Wedding-Highlights 2013
Eheleite.com wants to say thank you very much to all of the 24 spouses and to the total of 1.180 guests of the year 2013.
Also in this year, travelling through the country and being together and celebrating with our bridal couples, jubilarians and their guests, has been a great pleasure to us. Every medieval marriage, every pagan wedding, handfasting, birthday or name consecration gave incredibly much joy to us! It was lovely meeting you nice people and celebrating and designing your weddings together with you.
For a couple of weeks, all of the 12 bridal couples of the year 2013 can be seen here again – until we will start the new wedding year with a celebration to the Celtic Alban Eilirin on 20 March.
